HTB network

Last updated

The HTB network consists of churches planted by Holy Trinity Brompton (HTB) or by HTB plants themselves. As such, it is a network of Anglican churches within the Church of England and the Church in Wales that are linked back to HTB. [1] [2]

Contents

The network now comprises more than 30 of the approximately 490 churches in the Diocese of London, and 66 churches nationwide across 17 dioceses. In recent years the Church Commissioners have released tens of millions of pounds of funding to help HTB plants revitalise strategic churches. [3]
